I'm puzzled by how this will work. As far as I understand, the RK3568 has a CSI-2 receiver with 4 data lanes and 2 clock lanes. I assume this is used to support both 2x2 lanes and 1x4 lanes. Both the VICAP and ISP sections of the TRM list CSI2 RX registers, but it's not clear how the components are all connected.
